15th Anniversary - Cash back offer

12th November was the 15th anniversary for the formation of Allez-Français as a Limited Company in England, and then subsequently as a SARL in France. During this time we have sold hundreds of houses, and given great service and advice to thousands more.

We appreciate that market conditions are difficult for some buyers, and therefore we are offering an incentive, in the form of a cash-back deal to encourage people looking to sign for their French house during the 1st half of 2017.

The value of the cash back will be based upon the final amount paid for your property. We will be able to give confirmation of the figure at the time that you sign a compromis de vente. The cash back will be in the form of a reduction in the agency commission fees.

A small and personal business, but big on initiatives and ideas. Thank you to all of our team, partners and customers.

Allez-Français ... selling houses, not just marketing them.

Selling a property in France – agency or private ?

Most agencies advertise their houses to include agency fees, (Price FAI) – as we do at Allez-Francais.

One or two agents advertise the property fully inclusive of all fees, (including agency & notary fees). However, this can be overly complicated, as prices may include fixtures & fittings, which would normally be excluded from notary fees.

Agency fees do also vary, sometimes quite considerably. Typically between 6 to 8%, which means that a house with a price net of 250,000 could be advertised anywhere between 265,000 and 270,000.

The agency fees are set out in the mandat which all agents have to have in order to market the property legally. The terms of the mandat will specify who pays the fees, either the vendor or the buyer, but in reality, because almost all properties are advertised to include the agency fees, it is effectively the buyer who pays.

There are a number of websites encouraging people to try and sell properties privately in France. On the face of it, this saves on agency fees and that money seems better off in the buyer's pocket than that of an agent.

However, not only can sales be slow, this can also be a huge mistake with legal and complicated repercussions. For example, items that should be listed in the Compromis de Vente (CDV) can be easily overlooked, and come completion day, the buyers are cursing their course of action as they haven’t got everything that they expected ... or worse.

On average, Allez-Francais fees are always highly competitive and we also offer the option of an exclusive mandat - which is of particular interest to any owners hoping for a quicker sale.
